I have had hypothyroidism since I gave birth to my son may of 2012. my son was premature and when I had to give up breast feeding I went back to taking phentermine and alli. before all this if I ever got to o overweight I would take phentermine and alli and in a few months I would be back to normal. well , almost two years has past and I am taking levothyroxine 75mcg and still can't get it under control. the diet pills are definitely not working because I am still 200 lbs and on a low fat diet that has always work. can anyone relate to this?View Thread
